Description:
An impressive avocado color graces the brittle plastic shell of this large, eleven-inch-platen typewriter. Inside, it's just the same Remington basket-shift mechanism that was introduced in 1949. The two sides of the body come off separately.
This machine, as labeled on the back, was assembled in the UK from UK and US parts.
It's a pretty large typewriter and comes in a big fiberglass (?) case.
